As Two Men Go Free, a Dogged Ex-Prosecutor Digs In - NYTimes.com:

NYT: In Lumberton NC – “As Two Men Go Free, a Dogged
Ex-Prosecutor Digs In” By RICHARD A. OPPEL Jr. SEPT. 7, 2014



LUMBERTON, N.C. — The most memorable moment of the trial
that put Henry McCollum and Leon Brown behind bars for three decades for a
hideous 1983 rape and murder was a display of brilliant courtroom theatrics.
District Attorney Joe Freeman Britt of Robeson County, who
stood 6-foot-6 and came to be known as America’s “Deadliest D.A.,” asked jurors
to try to hold their breath for five minutes — the time it took the 11-year-old
victim to choke to death, after her killer stuffed her panties down her throat
with a stick — to get a small sense of the horror she experienced.

The jury came back with two of the more than 40 death
penalty convictions Mr. Britt won over almost two decades.

Those two convictions were obtained on the basis of
inconsistent, soon recanted, confessions from two mentally impaired teenagers
who said they had been coerced to sign statements written by interrogators, and
testimony by an informer who previously did not implicate the two. They were
overturned last week, and Mr. McCollum and Mr. Brown were exonerated and set
free.

History News Network: NYT interviews Rick Perlstein about his book

NYT interviews Rick Perlstein about his book


“….What was the last truly great book you read? … A volume of Chekhov’s short stories. I don’t read many popular histories like the ones I write. The building blocks for my research are scholarly monographs, and the inspiration for my storytelling style are folks like Chekhov. His masterful long short story “A Woman’s Kingdom,” about a forlorn heiress saddled against her will with the job of running the family business, precisely exemplifies what I’m aiming to accomplish in my history writing: to sympathetically reimagine the points of view of people from all genders, ideologies and social identities...
